IMPAKT Festival 2022: The Curse of Smooth Operations:

We all know the feeling of dissatisfaction with technology that underperforms, behaves unpredictably or breaks down completely. From 2 to 6 November 2022, IMPAKT Festival invites its audience to embark on a train of thought that travels in the opposite direction: could it be that technology reveals itself at its most dissatisfactory precisely when it operates well or even exceeds expectations?
